Guided by our vision, we are leveraging the power of our leading edge technology and focusing on the uniqueness of each individual to create the future of health. As a global-leading health and well-being provider - encompassing physical, mental and financial health - TELUS Health is improving health outcomes for consumers, patients, healthcare professionals, employers and employees.\nJoin our team and what we'll accomplish togetherAt TELUS Health, we're transforming how organizations manage their most complex benefits challenges. Our Retirement & Benefit Solutions team partners with leading enterprises to modernize and implement Defined Benefit / Defined Contribution pension and Benefits platforms-work that directly impacts thousands of employees and retirees.\nAs a Senior Project Manager, you won't just oversee implementation timelines. You'll own the complete delivery story-from the first client conversation through successful go-live and transition to operations. You'll lead through complexity, build trusted relationships with C-suite executives, steer multi-million dollar initiatives, and mentor the next generation of delivery leaders. This is leadership that shapes how organizations transform, and it requires someone who can balance strategic vision with meticulous execution.\nIf you thrive navigating ambiguity, inspiring cross-functional teams, and turning intricate challenges into client wins, this is your role.\nWhat you'll do\nYour Week in Focus:\nYou'll divide your time between strategic leadership and hands-on delivery. You'll start your week in governance forums-steering committee calls, executive status reviews, and decision meetings-where you present insights, flag risks, and secure buy-in for critical decisions. Mid-week, you're embedded with your configuration, data, QA, development, and integration teams, ensuring every workstream is aligned and integrated. You're the \"single throat to choke\" for your client-the one they call when they have concerns, when scope shifts, or when they need confidence that their project is on track.\nYou'll proactively manage risks before they become crises: spotting dependencies early, modeling scenarios, stress-testing timelines, and presenting options with clear recommendations. You're accountable for scope, schedule, budget, and quality-and you're not afraid to have tough conversations about trade-offs.\nYou'll also:\nLead change management, scope control, and financial tracking with precision\n\nPlan and optimize resource allocation across multiple workstreams\n\nChampion PMO standards and best practices, improving how the team delivers\n\nMentor junior project managers and coordinators, growing future leaders\n\nHarness AI and automation to strengthen governance-think: executive dashboards, risk trend analysis, dependency mapping, and delivery forecasting powered by tools that amplify your leadership\n\nWhat you bring\nMust-Have Experience & Qualifications:\n5+ years of project management experience, with proven success delivering complex Defined Benefit pension implementation projects end-to-end\n\nMastery of client-facing software implementation delivery, particularly projects with multiple workstreams and senior stakeholders\n\nDeep knowledge of pension administration-processes, pain points, and technology landscapes\n\nExecutive-level communication and stakeholder management-you speak fluently with C-suite clients and senior leaders\n\nDemonstrated expertise in risk management, financial control, and change control across large-scale initiatives\n\nProven track record leading governance forums and steering committees with senior client stakeholders\n\nLeadership of integrated, multi-disciplinary teams across configuration, data, QA, product, development, and integration functions\n\nAI fluency and digital leadership mindset-hands-on experience applying generative AI, copilots, or automation to improve delivery insights, governance, and decision support\n\nUnderstanding of responsible AI practices, including data privacy, security, and appropriate use of enterprise-approved tools\n\nAbility to identify and champion practical AI use cases (e.g., executive reporting automation, risk trend analysis, dependency mapping, forecasting)\n\n Nice-to-Have Skills:\nBilingual proficiency (English and French)\n\nPMP or similar project management certification\n\nExperience with SaaS platforms, data migration, and system integrations\n\nFamiliarity with tools like Azure DevOps (ADO), Jira, or comparable platforms\n\nSalary Range: $85,000-$110,000\nActual total compensation will be determined based on factors such as knowledge, skills, performance and experience. We encourage all qualified candidates to apply, even if the posted salary range doesn't match your expectations. We're open to discussing competitive compensation packages tailored to your experience level and expertise.\nTELUS Health offers rewarding benefits, which may vary per job function, such as:\nComprehensive total rewards package highlighting competitive salary and bonus structures, minimum 3 weeks of vacation, and flexible benefits plan to meet the needs of you and your family\n\nFlexibility to work in-office, virtually or a combination of both\n\nGenerous company matched pension\n\nOpportunity to give back to communities in which we work, live and serve\n\nCareer growth and learning & development opportunities to develop your skills\n\nJob Type: This is for a current vacancy.\nWhy TELUS Health? You'll work on mission-critical projects that matter to thousands of employees and retirees. You'll have autonomy, visibility at the highest levels, and the backing of a technology leader committed to innovation in health and benefits. Plus, you'll be part of a delivery culture that values continuous improvement, mentorship, and responsible use of AI to amplify human expertise-not replace it.\nA bit about us\nWe’re a people-focused, customer-first, purpose-driven team who works together every day to innovate and do good.
